Thats
not what I was saying. I was just saying that's how he could have fed it. I
didnt say it was right, just that was one way he could do it. I think if he
could afford to feed the tiger (and did it ever mention exactly where he got it
from) then he could afford to pay his own rent, buy his own food,
etc..
So it's OK for him to live in public
housing while wasting money feeding an animal that didn't belong in a home to
begin with.....I'm sorry I just can't buy it. He defrauded the taxpayers
of NYC.

Well
ya know if he managed to get say $300 a month, he could have been feeding
himself on 50-100 and spending the rest on the tiger. I know if I lived alone,
I'd probably only spend around 50-100/month feeding
myself.
True, he could have been buying
packs of meat ( to feed the tiger )with food stamps and starving himself lol
Who knows about some folks...

And didnt Laurie say he was probably feeding the tiger with his
foodstamps. Or he could have been catching stray cats in the neighborhood
and feeding them to it, hehe
Which is all beside the point.
The point is that the taxpayers of NYC were footing the bill for the
rent of a man who could obviously afford to pay his own rent. He
was feeding wild animals for Pete's sake. Probably the food bill
for the tiger alone would pay a very large portion of rent in a normal
priced city. I would imagine feeding a tiger would take several
hundred dollars a month.
